The one-way control valve 3 is arranged in the sucker 1 and is connected with the first air passage 4 and the second air passage 5. The one-way control valve 3 is used for closing when the gas is introduced into the first gas channel 4 and also used for opening when the gas in the first gas channel 4 is pumped out. The transfer device 2 is arranged in the suction cup 1, the transfer device 2 is provided with a supporting rod 21, and the supporting rod 21 is used for being ejected out of the top of the suction cup 1 by gas when the gas is introduced into the first gas channel 4.
The two ends of the one-way control valve 3 are respectively connected with the first air passage 4 and the second air passage 5, and can control the air in the second air passage 5. Specifically, as shown in fig. 2, arrow a indicates the direction in which gas enters the delivery device 2 from the first gas passage 4 during ventilation, and arrow B indicates the direction in which gas flows from the first gas passage 4 to the one-way control valve 3 by closing the one-way control valve 3 during ventilation; arrow C is the direction in which the gas travels in the second gas passage 5 when the one-way control valve 3 is opened upon evacuation. As shown in fig. 2, the air enters the first air passage 4 through the air inlet hole 10, and when the air is introduced into the first air passage 4, the air pushes the supporting rod 21 of the delivery device 2 out of the top of the suction cup 1, so that the supporting rod 21 can receive a product. Meanwhile, the one-way control valve 3 is closed to prevent gas from entering the second air passage 5, no gas is discharged from the gas passage 6 connected with the second air passage 5, and the gas passage 6 will not interfere with the product. When the air is pumped through the air inlet hole 10, the air in the first air channel 4 is pumped out, the supporting rod 21 has no air thrust, the supporting rod 21 is reset to the sucker 1, and the product is lowered onto the sucker 1. And the one-way control valve 3 is opened, at this time, the gas in the second air passage 5 and the gas passage 6 is also pumped out, the gas passage 6 forms negative pressure at the opening of the top of the sucker 1, so that the product on the sucker 1 can be adsorbed on the sucker 1, and the product can be stably fixed by the sucker 1. The product may be a silicon wafer.
As shown in fig. 2, the adsorption mechanism 100 is rotatably installed on the base 8, and is in butt-joint communication with the air inlet hole 10 through the air passage 81 in the base 8 to supply air or exhaust air into the suction cup 1. The adsorption mechanism 100 may be used on other bases as well.
It is easy to find out from the above that, since the delivery device 2 is directly arranged in the suction cup 1, and the delivery device 2 receives the product by pushing the gas, the structure is simple and exquisite, and the cable connection is also disturbed. Meanwhile, the one-way control valve 3 is connected with the first air passage 4 and the second air passage 5, when air is supplied to the suction cup 1, the one-way control valve 3 is closed, the support rod 21 of the delivery device 2 ejects the suction cup 1 to receive products, and the air passage 6 penetrating through the top of the suction cup 1 does not act on the products, and when air is pumped into the suction cup 1, the one-way control valve 3 is opened, the support rod 21 of the delivery device 2 enters the suction cup 1 to not act on the products, negative pressure can be formed in the air passage 6 to enable the products to be adsorbed and fixed on the top of the suction cup 1, so that the products can be stably driven to move by the suction cup 1. Therefore, the adsorption mechanism 100 can realize the delivery work of products and the fixing work of the products, and has simple and light structure and small overall size. In addition, the suction mechanism 100 is free from cable interference, and the suction cup 1 can rotate at a large angle and cannot be wound. Furthermore, the first air passage 4 and the second air passage 5 can be communicated and disconnected through the one-way control valve, namely, the air in the first air passage 4 and the air in the second air passage 5 can be interacted through the common air inlet 10 connected with external equipment, so that the adsorption mechanism 100 does not need to be worry about the fact that the first air passage 4 and the second air passage 5 are communicated with the external equipment through different air inlets when being driven to rotate, the use and assembly of the adsorption mechanism 100 are simpler, the adsorption mechanism 100 can be driven to rotate 360 degrees without limitation further, and the production requirement is met.

The housing 22 includes: the device comprises a shell 221, a gland 222 arranged at the top of the shell 221 and a limit plug 223 arranged at the bottom of the shell 221, wherein the shell 221 surrounds the gland 222 and the limit plug 223 to form an inner cavity 20. The side wall of the housing 221 is provided with a through hole 220 for communicating the first air passage 4 with the inner cavity 20. The gland 222 is provided with an opening, the support rod 21 is slidably connected with the inner wall of the shell 221 in a sealing manner, and the support rod 21 can movably penetrate through the opening of the gland 222 or retract and integrally enter the inner cavity 20. The stopper 223 has a protrusion 2231 protruding into the cavity 20, the protrusion 2231 is used for supporting the bottom surface of the support rod 21, and the top surface of the protrusion 2231 is higher than the lower portion of the inner wall of the through hole 220. The air enters the inner cavity 20 through the first air passage 4 and pushes the support rod 21 upwards, so that the support rod 21 is higher than the top surface of the sucker 1. During air extraction, the inner cavity 20 generates negative pressure to the support rod 21, the support rod 21 slides downwards to enter the inner cavity 20, the protruding part 2231 limits the support rod 21, and a space for air to enter is always reserved between the bottom surface of the support rod 21 and the limiting plug 223, so that air can push the support rod 21 to slide upwards from the bottom of the support rod 21 when required. As shown, the left and right sides of the housing 22 each have a through hole 220, and gas enters the interior cavity 20 from the through holes 220 on the right side of the housing 22.

Through the arrangement of the elastic piece 23, when the first air channel 4 is not filled with air, the supporting rod 21 can be automatically reset to the initial position, namely, the supporting rod 21 enters the sucker 1, so that the supporting rod 21 cannot interfere with the product when the sucker 1 adsorbs the product.

When the sucking disc 1 is filled with gas, the gas enters the valve body 31 from the valve body air outlet 330 in the direction of arrow B in the first air passage 4, the gas pushes the sealing element 32, the sealing element 32 blocks the valve body air inlet 310, and the gas cannot enter the second air passage 5 from the valve body air inlet 310, so that the adsorption zone 11 cannot act on products. During air suction, in the direction of arrow C in fig. 2 (i.e., the direction of arrow D in fig. 5), the air pushes the sealing member 32 from the valve body air inlet 310 toward the limit screw 33, the valve body air inlet 310 is opened, the air enters the valve body 31, and is discharged from the valve body air outlet 330 to the air inlet hole 10, at this time, the one-way control valve 3 is opened, and a negative pressure adsorbable product is formed in the adsorption zone 11. After stopping the suction, the spring 34 can push the sealing member 32 to return, and the one-way control valve 3 maintains the initial closed state, at which time the gas cannot pass through the one-way control valve 3.
